Personal Worship and Corporate Worship One cannot replace the other Leading Worship You cannot lead people to a place you haven’t been to yourself… unless you are the vessel that THE greatest and highest Leader (God) is leading people through. How do I lead Worship? Seek, Watch, Learn, Pray, Practice, Grow, Translate (what God spoke to you through music, prayer, words, sound, etc)… And the list goes on… really.

It’s not about what you have, It’s about what you are willing to have and give Worship is not just a form of service It’s a lifestyle "I appeal to you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God, which is your spiritual worship.“ – Romans 12:1

Communion Translation Team!!

Purpose To bring the Chinese and English ministry together during our monthly communion. To accommodate the ones that don’t understand mandarin mostly from the English ministry.

How we do it The communion is held on the first Sunday of every month. Each month a translator is selected to translate the message. Meet with the Elder or Pastor after the fellowship on the Friday before the first Sunday of the month. Serving the bread and cup is also part of our service. That means we have to dress up.

Requirements A baptized Christian. Attend all meetings even if not the translator for the month. Attend Friday fellowship and Sunday worship regularly.

Jesus shows us by example to pray. “But Jesus often withdrew to lonely places and prayed.” Luke 5:16 God gives us peace when we pray! “Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.” Philippians 4:6-7 God answers prayer; there is power in prayer. “This is the confidence we have in approaching God: that if we ask anything according to his will, he hears us. And if we know that he hears us—whatever we ask—we know that we have what we asked of him.” 1 John 5:14-15

Service Ministry 42 And Jesus called them to him and said to them, "You know that those who are considered rulers of the Gentiles lord it over them, and their great ones exercise authority over them. 43 But it shall not be so among you. But whoever would be great among you must be your servant, 44 and whoever would be first among you must be slave of all. 45 For even the Son of Man came not to be served but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many.“ -Mark 10:42-45
